Tras el �xito de Historia de un gato, vuelve Laura Agust� con un libro de delicada belleza: un homenaje a la naturaleza y al lenguaje de las plantas.
«Un relato preciosista, entre la autobiograf�a, el cuaderno de explorador y el ensayo gr�fico. [...] Virtuosismo en tinta . --Marta Caballero, El Mundo Cansada de la estresante vida de la ciudad, Laura decide trasladarse con su pareja a una casa en Nev�, un peque�o pueblo de los Pirineos. La idea es pasar tres meses de prueba antes de atreverse a dar el gran salto y, tal vez, mudarse de forma definitiva. Pronto se reencontrar� con todo un ecosistema muy familiar y que casi hab�a olvidado: el de su infancia en la fr�a tierra de Teruel rodeada del lenguaje de las flores, los �rboles y las plantas, as� como el de toda una estirpe de mujeres comprometidas con el amor y el conocimiento de la naturaleza que le inocularon el «furor bot�nico . Su bisabuela Pilar, que curaba los des�nimos con azafr�n y la planta de San Juan; su abuela Carmen, con la que Laura recog�a la aceituna; su madre, que sigue mand�ndole alcoholes para friegas, y su hermana Marina, que calma las rabietas de su hija con aceites esenciales. Entre recuerdos entretejidos con espl�ndidas ilustraciones, paseos por los senderos de los bosques para recoger setas, proyectos para su nueva casa y consejos para ajardinar nuestras vidas, Laura nos descubre la exuberante bondad del universo de las plantas. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION After the success of Story of a Cat, Laura Agust� returns with a book of delicate beauty--an homage to nature and the language of plants. Tired of a stressful life in the city, Laura decided to move to a house in Nev�, a small town in the Pyrenees, with her partner. The idea is to spend a three-month trial period before taking the big leap and, perhaps, move there permanently. Soon, she reunites with an entire ecosystem that is very familiar to her, which she had almost forgotten: the ecosystem of her childhood in the cold land of Teruel, surrounded by the language of flowers, trees, and plants, as well as an entire lineage of women committed to love and the knowledge of nature, who inject her with "botanical frenzy." Her great-grandmother Pilar, who used to cure discouragement with saffron and St. John's wort; her grandmother Carmen, with whom Laura went olive picking; her mother, who keeps sending her rubbing alcohol, and her sister Marina, who calms her daughter's tantrums with essential oils. Between memories woven into splendid illustrations, hikes along forest trails to gather mushrooms, projects for her new home, and tips for landscaping our lives, Laura shows us the exuberant kindness of the world of plants.Laura Agustí es licenciada en Bellas Artes por la Universidad Miguel Hernández de Altea y técnico superior en proyectos y dirección de obras de decoración por la Escuela Massana de Barcelona.
